At Oherm,
Understanding Environmental Assessment
At OHERM, we deliver thorough Environmental Assessment services designed to identify, evaluate, and manage environmental risks across your site or project. Our expert team applies industry best practices and regulatory standards to help you minimize environmental impact, ensure compliance, and promote sustainability.
Environmental Assessment involves evaluating potential hazards and impacts related to your operations, including chemical exposures, noise pollution, air quality, soil contamination, and ecological risks. The objective is to protect human health and the environment while maintaining regulatory compliance.
Our Environmental Assessment Services Include
Environmental Noise Monitoring
We conduct detailed noise surveys to assess environmental noise levels and impacts around your site. Using calibrated instruments, we measure noise sources, frequencies, and durations to identify compliance with regulatory noise limits and recommend control measures to reduce disturbance.
Environmental Air Monitoring
Our air quality assessments include sampling and analysis of airborne pollutants such as dust, gases, and chemical vapours. We monitor particulate matter, VOCs, and other contaminants to evaluate air quality and ensure it meets local environmental and health standards.
Contaminated Soil Assessment
We perform soil sampling and testing to detect contamination from chemicals, heavy metals, or hydrocarbons. Our assessments identify the presence and extent of contamination, evaluate risks to health and ecosystems, and inform remediation strategies where necessary.
Key featured services
Site Inspections & Sampling
We begin with an on-site environmental inspection to assess the current condition of the land, air, and surrounding environment. Our trained specialists conduct a comprehensive evaluation, collecting samples of soil, ambient air, water, and noise levels using calibrated instruments and industry-standard techniques.
This step helps establish a baseline for environmental quality and identify potential sources of contamination or disturbance.
Risk Identification & Analysis
Using the data collected from site inspections, we conduct a detailed risk assessment to identify potential environmental hazards and evaluate their impact on human health, ecology, and compliance.
This includes analysis of chemical pollutants, noise impacts, air dispersion modeling, and soil contamination risks. We apply both qualitative and quantitative risk analysis tools to assess severity, likelihood, and potential mitigation strategies.
Regulatory Compliance
We ensure your site or operation aligns with all WHS environmental regulations, including EPA standards and industry-specific guidelines.
Our team performs a compliance gap analysis, reviewing permits, environmental thresholds, and legal requirements. If non-compliance is detected, we offer clear recommendations for corrective actions to achieve full regulatory alignment and avoid penalties or delays.
Environmental Monitoring Programs
For ongoing compliance and environmental protection, we design and implement customized monitoring programs tailored to your project or operational site.
This includes the installation and maintenance of sensors and stations to track air quality, dust levels, soil condition, and environmental noise. Our monitoring ensures that any emerging issues are detected early, and reporting obligations are met consistently over time.
Clear Reporting
All findings are compiled into a comprehensive and easy-to-understand report, including data analysis, visual graphs, maps, regulatory benchmarks, and expert interpretations.
Our reports are structured for both technical stakeholders and non-technical decision-makers, with clear summaries, key findings, and practical recommendations for next steps, remediation, or policy updates.
Sustainability Guidance
We offer tailored advice to help your organization adopt sustainable environmental practices. This includes recommendations on reducing emissions, minimizing waste, conserving water, and improving energy efficiency.
We also support the integration of sustainability into operational planning, procurement, and development approvals—enhancing your reputation and long-term environmental performance.
